Micro-nano optical fiber method-amber sensor for high-speed dynamic temperature measurement and manufacturing method
Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of temperature sensing measurement, in particular to a micro-nano optical fiber method-Peltier sensor for high-speed dynamic temperature measurement and a manufacturing method thereof.
Background
The transient temperature is an important parameter for thermodynamic analysis of high-temperature flow fields and temperature-resistant devices in the application occasions of combustion, high-speed heat transfer and the like, and plays a vital role in high-speed dynamic accurate measurement of the transient temperature in various fields of aviation, national defense, industry and the like. If the temperature of the combustion chamber of the aircraft engine exceeds 1600 ℃, the temperature measurement response time of the high-mobility warplane engine needs less than 10ms for facilitating flight control; transient temperature measurement is also involved in the research of weapons such as missile gas jet, ammunition explosion, gun barrel inner and outer walls and the like, the temperature measurement range reaches thousands of ℃, and the transient response requirement is even lower in mu s. The device has the characteristics of high temperature, large temperature change range, high change speed, severe measurement environment, difficulty in repetition and the like, and has extremely high measurement requirements and great difficulty. The thermocouple temperature measurement mode commonly adopted at present has shortcomings in the aspects of electromagnetic interference resistance, size, response speed and the like. The upper limit of temperature measurement is only 150 ℃ by adopting a hot wire heating mode, and the requirement of high-temperature measurement cannot be met. The optical fiber sensing technology has the advantages of interference resistance, small size, high precision, high reliability and the like, and can meet the requirements of temperature measurement under severe environmental conditions. However, since the diameter of a general optical fiber is 125 μm, when a high-speed dynamic temperature measurement is performed, the response time can be only 10ms due to the limit of the self heat capacity, and a higher speed temperature measurement cannot be performed.
Therefore, there is a need in the art for a thermometric sensor that solves the above problems.
